Nice looking car, but out here in New Mexico with incessant sunshine, a car like that would leave a trail of blinded drivers who've crashed for lack of vision.

FeelingTheBlues · 21 January 2012, 03:47 AM

Great car (although I'm not the biggest fan of this paint job) and good story Dino! What kind of what did he have?

...Now wait a minute, isn't he parked on the wrong side of your roads?

Sweramic · 21 January 2012, 03:48 AM

Nice! What did he wear himself?

Thanks for sharing Dino!

tkc324 · 21 January 2012, 03:48 AM

Wow... thats a nice looking car. Your watch is not too shabby either... lol.

Correct! He is indeed on the wrong side of the road.. On £100K a week, I don't think he cares...

He was wearing a RG Audemars Piguet of some form... Not sure which

Indeed...especially with such a piece (the timepiece, that is)!

Wolfgang427 · 21 January 2012, 03:58 AM

120,000 pounds for a paint job?

I would just go out an buy another car for that much coin.

JustABreathAway · 21 January 2012, 03:59 AM

Well, I like your Rolex, too!

I think Astons are 'okay' at best; I'd spend the money on a 458 Italia every day of the week plus twice on Sunday before I bought that (and that's before that paint job).

Cru Jones · 21 January 2012, 04:00 AM

That paint job is SICK! Thanks for sharing.

liuk3 · 21 January 2012, 04:01 AM

Nice watch.

Fugly car. Way to ruin a perfect good Aston Martin. Might as well put spinners and neon lights on it while he's at it.

Melanotaenia · 21 January 2012, 04:01 AM

too bad money can't buy class.....what a way to ruin an Aston!!!!

mjclark32 · 21 January 2012, 04:03 AM

Nice encounter

dddrees · 21 January 2012, 04:04 AM

Have to agree nice watch.

Great looking car.

Astons are "okay" at best....

They are flippin' gorgeous!!!!!!

RRGHOST1 · 21 January 2012, 04:06 AM

Thats footballers for you,more money than sense !

renfield33 · 21 January 2012, 04:07 AM

i believe that is what they would call a footballer's car on top gear.

thewatchguy93 · 21 January 2012, 04:10 AM

This is what my brother-in-law tells me, but they are way too much form without enough function for my tastes. Again, the Ferrari is not only the most beautiful of all automobiles on the road, but the fastest, too!

In reality, I think you'd feel good getting into either one!

FeelingTheBlues · 21 January 2012, 04:15 AM

Amazingly amazing!

rockmastermike · 21 January 2012, 04:53 AM

yes, nice to get a compliment

question (because I have no idea) what kind of player is Mr.Pennant? I mean is he average, just a guy, somewhat good, decent or is top of the line elite level....just curious as to the level of player that can sport around in such a nice ride?

I know of no major speed/lap/etc. records currently held by road going Ferraris. I'd MUCH rather own an Aston Martin V12 Vantage or McLaren MP412C, but as you said, I have no doubt it would feel good getting into any of the above.

BaltimoreBrian · 21 January 2012, 05:04 AM

Dino, does this mean you are keeping the HULK?

He's premier league which is top in the country.. He's quite a good player, but not "one of the best" IMO
